Swimming Rules - Page 1
JAMES RIVER AQUATIC CLUB
www.jracsummerswim.org
SWIMMING RULES
The goals of the JAMES RIVER AQUATIC CLUB are to provide an opportunity for qualified swimmers and divers of the JRAC
to compete with other member clubs in competitive swimming and diving and to foster swimming and diving in each member
club so that each child has the maximum opportunity and incentive to develop his aquatic interests and abilities.
All swim rule change proposals for the following year must be submitted in writing to the Swimming Vice President by September
1. Proposals for new or modified rules must be submitted in the form of a motion specifying the wording and placement of the
new/modified rule and providing a rationale for the change. All proposed rule changes will be sent by the league to all
representatives with notice of the Rules Committee Meeting.
If not expressly provided in these SWIMMING RULES all competitive swimming in JRAC meets shall be governed by United
States Swimming. Use the following Web Site to download United States Swimming rules www.usaswimming.org
ARTICLE I – ELIGIBILITY
1.01 Member Clubs. Only dues-paying members (as an
individual or through their families) of a JRAC club
shall swim in a JRAC meet. Head coaches of
member clubs cannot swim in any JRAC meet.
1.02 Representation of Single Member Club. No
person shall swim for more than one member club
during any summer season. With prior approval of
both member clubs and payment of registration fees
to each, an eligible person may swim for one
member club and dive for another. A participating
JRAC swimmer may also swim at the United States
Swimming (USS) level.
1.03 Activation. All participants must be activated by
name, birth date, and gender with the JRAC
treasurer. Each member club shall be responsible
for the activation of its swimmers and for the
payment of annual dues of $20 per active swimmer.
This fee is not transferable nor is it refundable. A
penalty will be assessed to clubs whose initial
swimmer registration is not complete prior to the first
meet. Swimmers for whom league dues have not
been paid may participate in a meet only if their
name appears in the computer meet entry file OR if
their name appears on the computer generated hard
copy of the roster and/or top times report handed in
at the head table 45 minutes before the start of a
meet. By no later than midnight of the Saturday after
the meet swum as inactive, the treasurer must
receive two copies of the updated team roster
showing new swimmers and $20 for each new
swimmer.
The printed team rosters sent to the JRAC treasurer,
both for initial swimmer registration and for
subsequent additions or activations of swimmers,
may be generated without using the league
computer software, as long as the roster listing is
typed (or computer printed), includes each
swimmer’s first and last name, birthdate and gender,
and is alphabetized by swimmer’s last name.
1.04 Championship Meet. No person shall participate in
the JRAC Championship Meet unless he has swum
in at least one JRAC swim meet during the current
summer season.
1.05 Handicapped Swimmers. Handicapped swimmers
shall be exempt from disqualification if, in the opinion
of the referee, they do not enjoy a competitive
advantage. All handicapped swimmers must be
brought to the attention of the referee at the coaches
meeting before the meet.
1.06 Club Insurance. A Certificate of Insurance,
documenting liability coverage for each Member
Club’s property, including but not limited to pools
and pool deck area, must be on file with JRAC at all
times. Updated copies must be submitted to the
JRAC Secretary upon renewal. Member Clubs will
not be permitted to host JRAC meets until this
Certificate of Insurance is submitted.
1.07 Conduct Unbecoming of a Swimmer. If
suspected of being under the influence of illicit drugs
or alcohol at a JRAC sanctioned event and not
disproved, an automatic full season suspension shall
follow. Suspension is subject to appeal to the Board.
If any mitigating circumstances found, a minimum
Page 2 - Swimming Rules
one meet suspension will still be enforced. In the
event the next meet is the JRAC Championship
meet this one meet suspension shall remain in force.
This policy shall be communicated to our
intermediate and senior swimmers before the start of
the current season by the coach with JRAC rep also
present.
ARTICLE II - CLASSIFICATION
2.01 Age. The eligibility of a swimmer for a particular age
group will be determined by his age as of June 1st.
Mites
8 and under
Midgets
9 and 10
Juniors
11 and 12
Intermediates
13 and 14
Seniors
15 through 18
Seniors who attain the age of 19 years after June 1st
will be allowed to complete the regular season and
participate in Champs that year only.
2.02 Competitive Classifications. Swimming shall be
conducted within each age group under the following
competitive classifications:
Novice Heat. Any swimmer may swim in a Novice
Heat if he is a Novice in that event. A swimmer is a
Novice in an event in his respective age group
unless he has made the novice cut-off time or faster
for his age group shown in Appendix S-2
Regular Heat. Any swimmer may swim in a Regular
Heat provided he has not made Heat X qualifying
time or faster in that event. Qualifying times are
located in Appendix S-2.
Heat X. Any swimmer must swim Heat X if he has
made a Heat X qualifying time in that event, unless
he has made Heat XX qualifying time in that event.
Qualifying times for Heat X appear in Appendix S-2.
Heat XX. Any swimmer must swim Heat XX if he has
made a Heat XX qualifying time in that event.
Qualifying times for Heat XX appear in Appendix S-2.
2.03 Official Classifying Times. Only those times
achieved in JRAC meets since June 1 of the two
prior seasons will be used for classifying swimmers.
NOTE: Any swim by a swimmer who is DQed counts
as a "no swim".
2.04 Aging Up. When a swimmer changes age groups,
his competitive classifications shall be determined
by the novice cut-off times, Heat X and Heat XX
qualifying times for the new age group. This rule also
applies for Championship Qualifying Times.
ARTICLE III - SWIM MEETS
3.01 Scheduling. Except where prohibited by club policy
and legal holidays, all swim meets will be held on
Monday nights with the exception of schedule
changes approved by the Board each year.
Warm-up times for swim meets will be as follows: the
Home team will practice 45 minutes prior to the start
of the meet; the Visiting team will practice 30
minutes prior to the start of the meet. Each team will
have 15 minutes for warm-ups, i.e., for a 6:30 p.m.
meet, warm-up times for the Home team will be 5:456:00 p.m. and for the Visiting team 6:00-6:15 p.m.
3.02 Competing Clubs. Each member club shall
participate in six meets on the basis of its respective
standings at the end of the previous summer
season. The teams in the Blue, Red and White
divisions shall compete against each other.
3.03 Events. Each swim meet shall consist of the events
listed in Appendix S-4
3.04 Entrants. Member clubs may enter no more than
three swimmers in a Regular Heat, Heat X or Heat
XX of each event except Mite, Midget and Junior
Regular in IM & Freestyle events. In these age
groups only, member clubs may enter no more than
six swimmers in a Regular Heat of IM & Freestyle,
with no more than three scoring swimmers. Regular
swimmers entered beyond the maximum amount of
scorers must be entered as Exhibition and these
Exhibition swimmers will be determined prior to
swimming the event. An unlimited number of
swimmers may be entered in the Novice Heat with
the exception of the IM where no more than three
Novice swimmers may swim the IM events each
week. No person shall swim in more than one heat
(excluding relay events) of the same stroke in any
swim meet. Swimmers may participate in no more
than four (4) events with a maximum of three (3)
individual events in any swim meet, including EXH
IM & Free.
3.05 Relays. Relay teams must consist of four swimmers,
as follows: two boys and two girls; one boy and three
girls; or four girls. Each participating member club
may enter no more than three relay teams in each
relay event. Relays are open to all swimmers in a
particular age group, including Heat X and Heat XX
Swimming Rules - Page 3
swimmers. The swimmers' first and last names must
be listed in swimming order.
3.06 Timer's Cards. Each coach is responsible for
completing a Timer's Card for each swim meet event
in which a swimmer is to participate. Clubs shall
print white Timer's Cards using the software. Timer's
Cards shall be completed by the coach prior to the
meet and given to the swimmers just before they
report to the Clerk of Course. The Clerk of Course
shall mark the proper heat number and lane number
on each card. The swimmer shall present his
completed card to the Lane Timer for the indicated
lane when his heat is called to the blocks.
3.07 Seeding. Host club Regular Heat swimmers shall
swim in the odd lanes and visiting club Regular Heat
swimmers shall swim in the even lanes. Heat X and
Heat XX swimmers shall be similarly seeded. The
Clerk of Course shall seed Novice Heat swimmers
at random, attempting, to the extent practicable, to
allocate swimmers from the teams evenly among the
heats. Novice Heat, Regular Heat, Heat X and Heat
XX shall, if practicable, be combined. In such cases,
swimmers in each category will be seeded in
contiguous lanes, without regard to lane
assignment. An attempt should be made to assure
that there are at least three swimmers in each heat.
Whenever categories are combined in one heat, all
swimmers of those categories must swim in that heat
(i.e., one novice cannot swim with regulars unless all
novices swim with all regulars). Preseeding or deck
seeding of meets is permitted, subject to the
agreement of the competing teams. Preseeding by
time will be allowed within a speed category (Novice,
regular, X, XX). NOTE: See Clerk of Course
guidelines in Appendix S-7
3.08 Postponement of Swim Meets. After consultation
with the host club management and the JRAC
representatives of the participating member clubs,
the referee shall delay or postpone to a future date
any swim meet or event, even though the same has
been actually commenced, if in his judgment the
competition cannot be conducted or completed in a
safe and satisfactory manner and in fairness to all
swimmers. In the case where a meet has not started,
the minimum delay in determining whether a meet
shall be conducted shall be one hour from the time
of scheduled start of the meet (i.e. decision to not
continue should not be made before 7:30 p.m.)
When a meet has started, the minimum delay in

MASTER LIST OF JRAC EVENTS AND EVENT NUMBERS
Numbered Events for dual meets are selected from this master list. Not all events are swum at every meet.
Novice heats are only swum in those strokes that are declared novice for a particular dual meet. For example,
Freestyle and Backstroke have Novice heats in Meets #1 and #4. Novice Freestyle Relays are swum only in
Championships.
The event numbering scheme assigns even event numbers to Girls and odd event numbers to Boys. Event
numbers are grouped by stroke:
2-9
10 - 23
30 - 39
40 - 53
Individual Medley
Freestyle
Backstroke
Breaststroke
60 - 69
70 - 74

DIRECTIONS FOR 2016 SWIMMER REGISTRATION
All swimmers must be registered by name, date of
birth, and gender with the JRAC treasurer. Each
member club shall be responsible for the registration
of its swimmers and for the payment of annual dues of
$20 per active swimmer.
As your club's swimmers register with you, update
your roster file in the computer by either:
a. changing a swimmer's status to inactive if the
swimmer swam last summer and has not yet
registered, or
b. entering the swimmer as a new swimmer by adding
the swimmer to the roster file.
Paying league dues for the first time:
Print three copies (the third copy is for your records) of
the computer roster file from TM 6.0 by choosing
Reports/Administrative/Athletes from the Main Menu.
Then select team, gender both, roster and sort by
name. Do not select Include inactive. Then choose
create report and print. Send or deliver two copies of
the paper roster file, and a check for $20 for each
active swimmer to the JRAC treasurer (preferred) or
secretary (addresses below). The number of
participants for whom you are paying should match the
number of active swimmers totaled at the end of the
report. Keep the third copy for your own files, noting
check number, amount, and date of payment.
JRAC Treasurer
Pat Tune
9250 Grantham Drive
Mechanicsville, VA 23116
JRAC Secretary
Heather Heishman
2407 Cranbrook Road
Henrico, VA 23229
Paying league dues after the first time:
When you are ready to send in additional swimmers'
dues to JRAC, print three copies of the updated
computer roster. Highlight names of new swimmers
added since your last payment. Send or deliver two
copies of the list, and a check for $20 for each new
swimmer activated to the JRAC treasurer (preferred)
or secretary (addresses below). To verify your count,
the number of new swimmers plus the number of
active swimmers when you last paid dues should
equal the number of active swimmers on your roster.
Again, keep the third copy for your files, noting check
number, amount, and date of payment.
The printed team-rosters sent to the JRAC treasurer,
both for initial swimmer registration and for
subsequent additions or activations of swimmers, may
be generated without using the league computer
software, as long as the roster listing is typed (or
computer printed), includes each swimmer’s first and
last name, birthdate and gender, and is alphabetized
by swimmer’s last name.
Appendix S-7: Guidelines for Meet Workers - Page 25
CLERK OF COURSE
The Clerk of Course shall be provided with an area
clearly marked "CLERK OF COURSE" where all
swimmers must report as soon as their event is called.
If ADEQUATE space is available, this area should
be directly behind the timers, and must be restricted
from normal traffic flow.
Five or more rows of chairs or benches may be set
up directly behind and in line with the swimming lanes,
which will allow the Clerk to seat the swimmers. The
swimmers shall move up toward the starting blocks at the
direction of the Clerk.
The Clerk of Course may be provided with one or
two assistants and shall assign to them such duties as
will assist in the prompt dispatch of the events. Away
teams shall provide one Clerk of Course worker.
Host club regular heat swimmers shall swim in the
odd lanes and the visiting club regular swimmers shall
swim in the even lanes. Heat X and XX swimmers shall
be similarly seeded.
The Clerk shall keep the Announcer and/or Starter
apprised of the event number, heat number, Regular
heat, Heat X, Heat XX and/or any combined heats.
Each swimmer shall present his timer's card to the
Clerk of Course who shall then mark the proper LANE
NUMBER and the HEAT NUMBER on each card. The
Clerk shall then direct the swimmer to wait behind the
starting position.
Speed category must be marked on the Timer's
cards. All swimmers’ cards may be highlighted in the
following manner, if desired:
Novice -- Plain
Regular -- Yellow
X Category -- Blue
XX Category – Pink
Highlighting is not required.
Novice heat, Regular heat, Heat X and/or Heat XX
shall, if practicable, be combined. In such cases,
swimmers in each category will be seeded in contiguous
lanes, without regard to lane number. An attempt should
be made to assure that there are at least three swimmers
in each heat. Whenever categories are combined in one
heat, all swimmers of those categories must swim in that
heat (i.e., one regular cannot swim with Heat X
swimmers unless all Regulars swim with all Heat X
swimmers.)
The Clerk shall advise the Announcer which lanes
are occupied by Heat X and XX swimmers.
Should an event have only one swimmer, the Clerk
shall assign that swimmer to a middle lane.
The Clerk of Course shall make an effort to send
balanced heats to the blocks, i.e. equal numbers of
swimmers from each team placed in alternating lanes.
In the Novice heats, the Clerk of Course shall assign
full heats in the beginning, and less full heats at the end.
The Clerk shall seed Novice heat swimmers, attempting,
to the extent practicable, to allocate swimmers from the
two teams evenly among the heats.
In heats with less than six contestants, the Clerk
shall assign the swimmers to the center lanes, leaving
one or more of the outside lanes vacant.
The Clerk of Course shall immediately advise the
referee, announcer, timing officials and head tableworker
of all seeding changes that occur during the meet.
For teams who want to pre-seed the entire meet:
(1) The Home JRAC Rep must call the Away Team Rep
in advance. To pre-seed a meet must be agreed upon
by both teams.
(2) Cards must be turned in 45 minutes before the meet
is to begin. Changes can be made at any time by
going to the Clerk of Course. Coaches only may make
changes.
(3) The Away Team will provide one Clerk of Course
worker.
(4) Lane assignments shall stay the same according to
the above guidelines.
THE ABOVE GUIDELINES DO NOT APPLY TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP MEET.
Page 26 – Appendix S-7: Guidelines for Meet Workers
TABLE INSTRUCTIONS
The table should consist of at least 6 workers:
 1 head table worker from the home team

 1 verifier from each team
 1 head table runner (optional)
Head Table Worker Responsibilities
1. Assigns workers to their tasks and ensures that they
understand their responsibilities.
2. Ensures smooth running of table. Takes questions or
problems to REFEREE.
3. Checks handwritten cards for swimmer ID and entry
time. If ID is missing goes to roster report and writes the
swimmer ID on the handwritten card. If entry time is
missing goes to top times report and writes entry time
on handwritten card.
4. Sorts cards by seed time from slowest to fastest, and
circles middle watch time in red. If only two times are
recorded then writes average as official time in red.
Delivers cards for each completed event to the
computer operator. Notifies the computer operator of
any handwritten cards as these swimmers will need to
be added to the event.
5. When a disqualification card comes to the table, pull the
timers' card for that swimmer and write the name of the
swimmer on the DQ card. The DQ card must be signed.
If not, return to referee for signature. Tear the top (pink)
part off. Staple the pink copy of the DQ card to the
FRONT of the timers' card and mark "DQ" in red on the
timers' card. Notify people working computer. Give the
bottom part of the DQ card (white copy) to the
appropriate coach as soon as possible.
6. Deliver all results, cards and the final meet disk or CD
to the meet director.
7. Check for new league records. If a new league record is
achieved at a dual meet, the Head Table Worker must
telephone the Computer Secretary by noon of the day
following the meet. Arrangements must be made to
review the Timer's Cards for that event and the printed
meet results.
Assistant Head Table Worker Responsibilities
1. Generally assists head table worker.
2. Gives white copy of DQ cards to each coach as soon as
possible.
3. Reminds computer operator to compute score and
periodically sends score to announcer. (After all IM, all
FREE, etc.)
4. Verify new league records.
Computer Operator Responsibilities
1. Input swimmers’ times from card (in red and circled) into
computer. Add any swimmer not previously entered in
the event from their hand written card and input time.
2. Print results sheets.
3. Print ribbon labels.
4. Make corrections in computer should errors be found by
the verifier.
5. Route all results and cards to verifier.
Verifier Responsibilities
1. Sort all cards in TIME order by the red time on the card.
2. Count all time cards and DQ cards to verify the number
of entries and DQ's.
3. Compare the order and times of the printed results with
the order and times of the time cards. If a disparity
exists, the verifier should compare the times on the
printed results with time written in red on each card and
notify the computer operator IMMEDIATELY. In no case
should award labels be printed before an event has
been verified.
4. If no error exists, or after the correction has been made
and verified, rubber band the cards with the original
copy of the results and place in the results box. Forward
the second copy to the announcer via a runner, forward
the third copy to the ribbon labeler for posting, and store
the fourth copy for the away team.
5. Check first place finishes for league record.
Head Table Runner Responsibilities
1. Post the results of the event after verification and take a
copy of the results to the announcer.
2. Take DQ cards to the appropriate coaches.

TABLE PROCEDURES
Preparation Before Meet
Necessary Supplies:
 Black lead pencils
 Red pencils with erasers and/or red pens
 Paper clips, rubber bands
 Scotch tape
 Stapler and extra staples
 Post-It Notes
 3 small boxes to hold result sheets
[1 for originals, 1 for announcer, 1 for posting]
 2 shoe boxes to hold ribbons, labeled with each
club's name (optional)
 Computer with one or two printers
 Extra printer ribbons or cartridges
 8½ x 11 computer paper
 Computer labels for ribbons
 JRAC rule book
Prior to Meet Day
1. Gather supplies.
2. Verify working order of table computer hardware – one
(1) computer and one (1) or two (2) printers.
3. Make arrangements for adequate lighting, electrical
power and shelter for the computer.
Pre-Meet
1. Check points distribution in the software to be certain
all points are correct.
2. Run program and specify information for the current
meet including yard or meter pool and freestyle or
medley relay.
3. Receive computer 3.5" diskettes or CDs containing
home and visiting teams’ roster file showing activated
swimmers and those registered to swim in the current
meet.
4. Load diskettes as prompted by the program.
5. Load printer paper in report printer.
6. Load labels in label printer. (optional)
7. Run at least two copies of the Psych Sheet from the
Reports menu. Give one copy to the Clerk of Course
and keep the other at the head table.
During The Meet
1. The head table worker and the assistant need to
monitor all activities at the table. Any communication
with the referee must be the sole responsibility of the
head table worker. The decisions of the referee are
final insofar as the table is concerned. The head table
worker and verifiers should check fastest times swum
against the JRAC record sheet to determine if a league
record has been broken. Should a record occur, note
the record on the card. When the results sheet has
been generated note JRAC RECORD on all copies.
The home team's Swim Rep should report the new
record to the Computer Secretary the next day for
verification.
2. When an entire event has concluded the runner will
deliver the cards to the table. The head or assistant
head table worker will circle the middle time on each
swimmer's card in red ink or pencil. After recording
times in red on the cards and sorting from slowest to
fastest by entry time, these materials should be
delivered to the data entry person.
3. The computer operator must choose the proper event
number and the names of each swimmer entered in
that event will appear on the screen. The swimmers will
appear in order from slowest to fastest by entry times
(with the exception of swimmers with NO TIME).
Swimmers with NO TIME will appear at the beginning
in no specific order. The time marked in red on each
swimmer’s card is entered by their name.
4. Should a DQ occur, click on the DQ box. A time does
not need to be entered.
5. After all times have been input score the event. Print
three copies of the results sheet – one copy to be
verified, one copy for the announcer, and one copy to
be posted.
6. After scoring, all cards and results should go to the
verifier for checking. Verifier places all cards in TIME
ORDER by the handwritten time in red on the card,
then verifies that card order and times are the same as
the computer results order and times. Discrepancies
and errors should be sent to the computer operator.
7. Once verified, original results should be initialed and
placed in the box labeled originals. One copy goes to
the announcer and one copy should be posted. All
cards for an event should be wrapped with a rubber
band and placed in event order in a suitable size box.
Store the box in an accessible place should post-meet
checking be necessary. This box must be kept in a safe
place by the swim rep until after the September JRAC
meeting.
After The Meet
1. The computer operator must create a backup of the
meet file on the visiting flashdrive. If a JRAC record has
been set, the meet director must notify Kathy Watson,
the computer secretary (282-9355) by noon the
following day. Arrangements will be made to review the
cards for that event.
2. The computer operator should print report to determine
triple and quad winners for the newspaper. This report
should be given to the meet director or person
responsible for emailing triple and quad winners to the
newspaper. To do this, print award labels on paper (not
labels) for 1st place finishers in all individual and relay
events sorted by athlete.
3. The computer operator should print ribbon labels, for
all of the meet events, sorted by team. These should
be given to the appropriate representatives from each
Club.

James River Aquatic Club
2016 Head Table Instructions
Questions??? Call Kathy Watson (307-4063) or Cindy Gay (241-6388)
The Head Table Worker and the Verifiers (one from each team) have the most important jobs at the table. At a
minimum you should also have an Assistant Head Table Worker and a computer entry person. You will also need
one or two runners to bring cards to the table, return DQ cards to coaches, post results, and to take results to the
announcer. You also may choose to have backup verifiers, runners, or computer entry persons depending on how
much the people doing those jobs want to be on deck during the meet. It is important not to get behind. Matching
an individual’s skills with the job needs is one way to ensure efficient running of the table. For example, choose an
accurate, speedy typist for your computer entry person. Choose as a verifier someone who attends carefully to
detail. At a smoothly run head table the work for the meet should conclude within minutes of the meet.
Before the meet begins you should have a current roster report (as of the day of the meet) and a top times
report by name for the home and visiting teams. The visiting team will also bring a meet entry file on a
flashdrive. Your computer operator will merge these entries with the entries from the host club.
Below is an overview of the process at the Head Table during a meet and the things to look for as Head Table
Worker. Please know that finding and solving problems on the meet night is far better than discovering them later.
Have your swim rep notify Kathy Watson the next day by phone of any situations you are concerned about, in
particular any which could result in a penalty assessment.
1. After each heat, a runner will bring the event cards to the Head Table. The person doing intake of the
cards looks the cards over and checks for any handwritten cards.
Handwritten cards: Check the hard copy of the top times report and/or roster to see if the swimmer is eligible to
swim in the meet. If the swimmer does not appear on either of these reports he is not eligible to swim for points. He
or she may swim as an exhibition swimmer but will not be recorded in the results and the time will not count for top
times. It is essentially a no swim for league purposes. If no entry time is written on the card, check the top times
report and use the swimmer’s best time in the event as his or her entry time. Write that time on the card as the
swimmer’s entry time for the computer data entry worker. Verify that the swimmer competed in the correct speed
category. If the swimmer is listed on the roster but not top times report he should be entered as a no time or with
the regular cutoff time if the card is marked with an R for regular.
2. The intake worker should mark the official time (neatly and large enough to read) on each card with a
red pen that does not run when wet. The official time is the time between the fastest and the slowest
times written on the card. Any DQ cards that come to the table should be matched with the card for the
proper heat and lane. Check the DQ card to make certain it is signed and filled out properly. If not, a
runner should return it to the referee. If the DQ card is correct, write the swimmer name and team on the
DQ slip and staple it to the front of the swimmer’s card. Write DQ in red on the card. Have a runner return
the carbon portion of the DQ card to the coach ASAP. Once each card from an event has the official time
written in red, the cards should be put in order by seed time with NT cards on top (in no particular order)
followed by entry times from slowest to fastest. This is helpful to the data entry person because this is the
order the swimmers appear in the MM scoring software. Pass the cards for each event on to the data entry
person and notify the data entry person of any handwritten cards as those swimmers will likely need to be
added to the event.
Times: Hopefully there will be three watch times on each card that comes to the table. If all three times are
Page 32 – Appendix S-9: Swim Clinic Instructions
consistent, write the middle watch time in red on the swimmer’s card. If there are only two watch times, average
the two times and write the average in red on the swimmer’s card. If there is only one watch time that time
becomes the official time.
Analyzing times: If one time is >2.5 seconds from the other two times, average the two consistent times. If all 3
times vary by >2.5 seconds investigate by speaking with the referee, starter, or strokes and turn judges. Once the
data entry for an event has been completed, the cards and results for the event are passed on to the verifiers.
There should be one verifier from each team.
3. Once the data entry for an event has been completed, the cards and results for the event are passed on to
the verifiers. There should be one verifier from each team.
Verifier:
When the event is scored and the results printouts are available, count cards for each category of the event and
then count swimmers in each category on the results sheet. Do the numbers match? Place cards in red time order
from fastest to slowest for each speed category. The order of the swimmers should match the order on the results
sheets. The results time should be the exact time written in red on the swimmer’s card. Look for unusual times.
Match DQ slips with DQ entry on results printout—make sure heat and lane on card match heat and lane on DQ
slip. If teams are large and age group of event is young, be suspicious if printout shows less than 6 in any regular
event. For instance a swimmer with an R (regular) written on the card may be “swimming up” from novice. Make
certain the swimmer is scored as a regular, not as a novice. Sometimes coaches forget to enter a “swim up”
regular with the custom regular cutoff time and the swimmer is mistakenly scored as a novice. Any mistakes found
by the verifiers go back to the data entry person for correction and then need to be verified after the corrections are
made. Once an event has been verified as correct, one verifier initials the results sheet, the event cards are
wrapped with that copy of the results showing on the outside, folded and held together with a rubber band. The
results are put in a box in order by event and taken home by someone from the host team in case questions arise
the next day. This person should be someone who can be easily reached by the computer secretary the day
following the meet. One remaining copy of the event results goes to the announcer and the other is posted. NOTE:
Coaches may not be the ones designated to take the cards home, nor may they serve as card contacts.
4. At the conclusion of the meet after all events have been verified and found to be correct, ribbon labels
are printed sorted by team and name and given to the appropriate representative from each team.
5. The computer operator should print a meet score and triple/quad winner report and give it to the person
from the host team responsible for calling the score in to the newspaper the night of the meet. The Times
Dispatch number can be found in the rulebook. Meet scores should be called in by midnight the night of
the meet. Triple and quad winners should be emailed to the paper the morning following the meet. This is
very important as swimmers (especially the young ones) love to see their names in print or online. The
easiest way to find triple/quad winners is to run a label report sorted by team/then name for 1st place
winners only. Be sure to print this on paper (not labels) and highlight any name listed three or four times
in succession.
THINGS VERIFIERS SHOULD LOOK FOR AT THE MEET
Three swimmers per heat per team for R, X, and XX: In regular, X, and XX heats, there should be a maximum of
three swimmers per team. What to do if there are four: place cards from that heat and team face down on the
table, mix them up and draw one at random to be DQ’d. (You cannot decide to choose the slowest or fastest
swimmer of the four!) Attach a DQ slip to that swimmer’s card. That swimmer cannot then enter a replacement
event later in the meet. Write a note to tell the Swim Rep to call Kathy the next day to report the error so that the
team’s penalty can be processed by the Computer Secretary. In novice heats, each team can enter an unlimited
Appendix S-9: Swim Clinic Instructions - Page 33
number of swimmers with the exception of novice IM.
NOTE: 2014 Rule Change: Each team may swim a maximum of 3 Exhibition swimmers in each
regular freestyle heat for the mite, midget and junior age groups. These cards MUST be marked
Exh. The card signals the intent of the coach, so any card which is not marked Exh will be
considered a regular swimmer. Should there be more than 3 regular cards per team in the regular
freestyle heats for mites, midgets and juniors, the DQ policy in the previous paragraph shall apply.
Swimmer out of category: You will likely be aware of this only in the case of a handwritten card. If the top time
for the swimmer does not match the speed category written on the card, the swimmer must be DQ’d for swimming
out of category. If the clerk of course mistakenly places a swimmer in the wrong heat, the swimmer should not be
DQ’d if his or her card is correct. The card is what the league uses to signify intent. If a swimmer is DQ’d for
swimming out of category the night of the meet, notify Kathy that night or the following morning so she can assess
the penalty.
Checking league records: If you think a league record has been broken in a regular season meet, check and
double check. If the meet is in a yard pool, make certain you are comparing the swimmer’s time with the current
league record converted to a yard time. Write “POSSIBLE JRAC RECORD” in red on the card. Take a photo of the
card with a cell phone and send it to Kathy and Cindy or write a note with the details so that the swim rep can relay
the information to Kathy the next day. Give the swim rep the card and the results printout for the event in which the
record was potentially broken. These are forwarded to the Computer Secretary for verification before the record is
official. The Computer Secretary will notify the newspaper once the record has been verified.
In order for a regular season swim to be considered for a record, the card must have 3 hand times. If there
are only 2 times on the card, another verifiable time from a coach or league official is necessary to
corroborate the card times. Under no circumstance will a card with one hand time be considered for a
league record unless electronic timing is in use.
Novice events: Make sure all events which are swum are scored. Make sure there are no novice heats in strokes
which are not novice for that meet. Free is always novice as well as one of the other three strokes. If a card comes
to the table marked N for novice and the stroke is not novice for the meet, the swimmer must be DQ’d because the
card signifies the coach’s intent.
NOTE : 2016 Rule Change: Each team may swim a maximum of 3 Exhibition swimmers in
Regular IM for mite, midget and junior age groups. These cards MUST be marked Exh. The card
signals the intent of the coach, so any card which is not marked Exh will be considered a regular
swimmer. Should there be more than 3 regular cards per team in the regular IM heats, swimmers
will be chosen at random for disqualification.
NOTE: 2014 Rule Change: 50 Breast for Intermediates and Seniors will now have heats for R, X
and XX, which will be run at all 6 meets. Novice 50 Breast for Intermediates and Seniors will still
be an option for only meets 2 and 5. Any 50 Breast cards marked novice in other weeks will be
disqualified and subject to penalty.
Score: When all of the results for a stroke have been verified, remind the computer entry person to run a score.
The score should be printed out and taken to the announcer.
Page 34 – Appendix S-9: Swim Clinic Instructions
Swimmer in five events or four individual events: If you notice this (difficult to catch), the swimmer must be
Dqed from his fourth individual event. Write a note to the swim rep with the details so the Computer Secretary can
assess the penalty the next day.
NOTE: 2014 Rule Change: Exhibition swims in Regular freestyle heats for mites, midgets and
juniors will be considered as an individual event.
NOTE: 2016 Rule Change: Exhibition swims in Regular IM heats will be considered an individual
event.
More than 2 boys in a relay. A relay that swims with more than 2 boys must be disqualified. If you DQ for this the
night of the meet let the Computer Secretary know the following day so the penalty can be assessed.
Distance events for intermediates and seniors. 2014 Rule changes add R,X, and XX heats to both 50
Free and 50 Breast. A swimmer is allowed to participate in only one distance (50 or 100) of
freestyle and/or breaststroke at any given meet. Should a swimmer participate in both distances of
either stroke, the swimmer will be disqualified from the second event and subject to penalty.

2. Clipboards/pencils to club-specific place.
3. Heat sheets to trash.
B. Thank timers for their participation.
C. Return watch box to place obtained (battery replacement: Energizer 357/303).
VI. Fly-over Starts:
A. The purpose of fly-over starts is to conserve time and to establish and maintain meet momentum.
B. Under ideal conditions and with appropriate cooperation from the swimmers, intervals between heats
can be held to less than 20 seconds.
C. Fly-over starts are utilized ONLY for Midget, JR, INT and SR individual events (IM, FS, BS & BF).

D. The conditions required:
1. As swimmers finish their race, they MUST stay in the water, in a corner of the lane (not directly under
the block), and close to the wall as the next heat is started over their heads. They should align their bodies
straight up and down along the wall.
2. As soon as the outgoing race enters the water—but not before—the previous swimmers must
promptly exit the pool. If there’s a false start, all swimmers exit and the outgoing swimmers step up again.
E. The procedure:
1. When the final swimmer of the current heat touches the wall the Starter issues the “Step up”
command to the next heat.
2. Starter views the heat lane arrangement and within 4-5 seconds issues “Take your mark.”
3. The same process is then repeated for each additional heat. Intervals between events are similarly
managed so as not to create delays.
F. Considerations:
1. Because this procedure is time sensitive with few or no delays, upcoming swimmers must anticipate
their next race, have caps and goggles in place, be properly situated behind their blocks and be
immediately ready to mount the blocks at the direction of the Starter.
2. Timers—need to be given time to complete the cards.

JUDGING JRAC DIVING
JRAC Diving is a developmental league. The rules for judging developmental diving are slightly adapted to make it easier for
beginners to learn the sport, but they are based on the same criteria and standards for athleticism, aesthetics and safety used
to judge competitive diving at more advanced levels. As a judge, you must apply these standards conscientiously and fairly.
When in doubt, give the benefit to the diver.
Judging Criteria and Standards
 Judge the entire dive (approach, take-off, flight and grace in the air, and entry).
 Use the full range of scorecard, except 0 and 10.
 Deduct for errors, but reward superior performance.
 Do NOT take degree of difficulty into account.
Start of Dive
 First step on forward approach or press on back approach.

The Stott Scholarship will be awarded at the 2016 JRAC Dive and/or Swim Championships to one or more 2016

years. Interested seniors are encouraged to apply. Those seniors who will be unavailable for the championship
presentation ceremony are asked by the committee NOT to apply.
Character Qualities: The Stott Scholarship is awarded to the swimmer or diver who demonstrates dedication to the
sport of swimming and/or diving and loyalty to the athlete’s JRAC team. The scholarship winner continuously strives
to make the most of his/her abilities, vigorously pursues his/her goals and dreams, and competes in a way that sets
high personal and teammate standards. The scholarship winner leads by example and demonstrates that hard work
and dedication may lead to new levels of personal accomplishment. The winner represents the best of what
swimming and diving are all about in the James River Aquatic Club.
Winners of the Stott Scholarship will have demonstrated the following qualities, primarily through their involvement in
JRAC aquatics, but also in school and community.
 Dedication
 Scholarship
 Determination
 Service
 Integrity
 Sportsmanship
 Leadership
Selection Process: The Selection Committee bases its decision on careful consideration of the application materials
submitted by the applicant. The Selection Committee determines the number and amount of scholarships annually,
dependent on availability of funds and the quality of the candidate pool. In past years, the number of scholarships has
varied from four to eight and the amount of the scholarship has varied from $500 to $1,500.
